Martin and Mary is a sequel to The Other Martin Dempsey. The former faith based book told the story of Martin Dempsey, a crippled, deformed, and dwarfed teen who was isolated from all his classmates for more than eleven years because of the threats of the school bully. When a new boy arrives at school who will not be intimidated into observing the rule, "no one talks to the freak", Martin's school mates begin to see him as a human being. Martin searches for his purpose in life and reason for living and the story ends at the end of his senior year of high school as he is preparing to go away to college. This sequel begins at Martin's graduation from college and follows his life's journey and amazing accomplishments over the next 36 years.
This groundbreaking and highly acclaimed work examines the two most influential African-American leaders of this century. While Martin Luther King, Jr., saw America as "essentially a dream . . . as yet unfulfilled," Malcolm X viewed America as a realized nightmare. James Cone cuts through superficial assessments of King and Malcolm as polar opposites to reveal two men whose visions are complementary and moving toward convergence.
Germany, 1975. Two women near the end of their lives come together at the bedside of an old man, after having spent the last fifty years vying for first place in his heart. While one of the 20th century's greatest minds slumbers in the grip of nightmares, the two enemies sit in a nearby room and declare a truce. One is the man's wife, a woman who has always played her role as the devoted mother and the obedient, bourgeois Hausfrau to the Great Man and the tyrannical husband. The other is his former student and lover, nearly twenty years his junior. She is the Jewish intellectual consumed by her clear-sightedness.He is the brilliant and famous philosopher, now tormented by his Nazi past. In this wide-ranging score, each performer has an individual theme, yet each shares some of the notes of the others. But, above all, this fugue for three voices reveals the mark of the greatest tragedy of the century: for the characters are Martin Heidegger, his wife Elfriede, and Hannah Arendt. Catherine Clement skilfully paints a chiaroscuro portrait of forbidden love, recreating a famous love affair while turning the subtle intricacies of philosophy into memorable, enduring fiction.
